Free writng ( The unexpected spacetrip)

Life was scary, the sun was only a small from the horizon while they went farther away from their galaxy. It was confusing how they made it this far. 2 weeks ago some kind of alien virus had spread not the covid a different one, that made people into mindless minions of the invaders. Like zombies, but not out for brains. They became enforcers taking people to some kind of base. All of us that were leftover made it to a spaceship, the 551 foxtail, renamed after being stolen from the enemy. The aliens were huge gray-hued bulbous creatures, with too many eyes, and sinister-looking teeth curled into creepy smiles. They smelled and looked disgusting. Somehow I and a gang of rogues had managed to get into the base and steal a leftover rusty spaceship. How we managed not to get captured and followed is beyond me, and hopefully, they won't so we might be able to survive.
